Subject: [PATCH 03/50] fix: Pull images before Trivy scan and fix deployment
 idempotency

- Pull Docker images before Trivy scanning (fixes ICR authentication issue)
- Add image cleanup after scanning to save disk space
- Fix deployment idempotency: try update first, create if not found
- Properly handle exit codes with set -e for idempotent operations

Fixes:
- Trivy scan failures: UNAUTHORIZED errors when accessing ICR images
- Deployment failures: 'A resource with this name already exists' errors

Subject: [PATCH 06/50] fix: More aggressive cleanup to prevent disk space
 issues

- Add more aggressive cleanup in Dockerfile builder stage:
  - Remove test directories, dist-info, static libraries
  - Clean up pip, poetry, and cargo caches
- Improve Docker cleanup in workflow:
  - Remove all unused images (not just dangling)
  - Remove stopped containers
  - More aggressive system prune

This should reduce the size of site-packages being copied and free up more space during builds.

Subject: [PATCH 07/50] fix: Reduce Docker cache usage to prevent disk space
 exhaustion

- Change cache mode from 'max' to 'min' to use less disk space
- Set load: false to prevent storing image locally (push directly)
- This should significantly reduce disk usage during builds

The 'max' cache mode was creating large cache files that consumed
all available disk space during the build process.

- Configure pip to use CPU-only torch index globally
- Export Poetry deps to requirements.txt
- Remove torch/torchvision from requirements (already installed)
- Install remaining deps via pip (bypasses Poetry resolver)
- Adds verification that CPU-only torch is installed
- Saves ~6GB by avoiding CUDA libraries

Subject: [PATCH 15/50] feat: Improve smoke-test and add timeouts following
 best practices

Smoke-test improvements:
- Add IBM Cloud login/target setup (was missing)
- Add wait step to ensure apps are ready before health checks
- Add retry logic with exponential backoff for health checks
- Add timeout-minutes to prevent hanging
- Add proper error handling with set -e
- Validate URLs are not null before using
- Add step-level timeouts for individual health checks

Workflow best practices:
- Add timeout-minutes to all critical jobs:
  - build-and-push-backend: 30 minutes
  - build-and-push-frontend: 20 minutes
  - deploy-backend: 15 minutes
  - deploy-frontend: 15 minutes
  - smoke-test: 15 minutes
- Add permissions to smoke-test job
- Improve error messages and logging

This follows GitHub Actions best practices for:
- Timeout management
- Retry strategies
- Error handling
- Service readiness checks

Subject: [PATCH 16/50] fix: Add image verification steps to catch missing
 images early

- Add verification step after build to confirm image was pushed to ICR
- Add verification step before deployment to ensure image exists
- Use docker manifest inspect to verify image availability
- Fail fast with clear error messages if image doesn't exist

This will catch the '404 Not Found' error before deployment attempts,
making it clear when build/push steps fail silently.

Fixes: Image not found in ICR causing deployment failures

Subject: [PATCH 17/50] feat: Add semantic versioning and image cleanup for
 registry management

Versioning Strategy:
- Detect git tags (v*.*.*) and tag images with semantic versions
- Always tag with commit SHA (immutable, traceable)
- Tag with semantic version when releasing (v1.0.0, etc.)
- Tag with 'latest' for convenience (not for production)

Image Cleanup:
- Add cleanup job to remove old images from registry
- Keeps last N images (configurable via IMAGE_RETENTION_COUNT, default: 30)
- Only removes commit SHA tags, preserves version tags and 'latest'
- Runs on scheduled builds and manual workflow dispatch
- Prevents registry bloat from daily builds

Workflow Triggers:
- Added support for git tags (v*.*.*) to trigger releases
- Added release event trigger for GitHub releases

This addresses:
1. Versioning: Images tagged with v1.0.0 when releasing version 1.0
2. Space management: Old images automatically cleaned up to prevent registry bloat

Subject: [PATCH 18/50] feat: Integrate PROJECT_VERSION from .env/Makefile into
 workflow

Versioning Strategy:
- Read PROJECT_VERSION from .env (if exists) -> Makefile -> GitHub Actions
- Priority order:
  1. Git tag (v1.0.0) - highest priority
  2. GitHub variable PROJECT_VERSION
  3. Makefile PROJECT_VERSION ?= 1.0.0
  4. pyproject.toml version = "1.0.0"
  5. Commit SHA (fallback)

Changes:
- Add step to extract PROJECT_VERSION from Makefile in build jobs
- Use extracted version for Docker image tagging
- Add PROJECT_VERSION to env.example with documentation
- Maintain backward compatibility with existing workflows

Benefits:
- Single source of truth: .env -> Makefile -> Workflow
- Consistent versioning across local dev and CI/CD
- Easy to update: change .env, everything picks it up
- Supports git tags for releases (overrides PROJECT_VERSION)

Subject: [PATCH 20/50] fix: Read PROJECT_VERSION from .env file first (matches
 Makefile behavior)

Changes:
- Update version extraction to check .env file first (before Makefile default)
- This matches how Makefile works: .env overrides Makefile default
- If .env has PROJECT_VERSION=0.8.0, workflow will use 0.8.0
- Maintains same priority order as Makefile: .env -> Makefile default

Priority order:
1. Git tag (v1.0.0)
2. GitHub variable PROJECT_VERSION
3. .env file (PROJECT_VERSION=0.8.0) <- NEW: checked first
4. Makefile default (PROJECT_VERSION ?= 1.0.0)
5. pyproject.toml
6. Commit SHA (fallback)

This ensures .env file is the source of truth, just like in local development.

 PROJECT_VERSION from .env

- Both build jobs now check .env file first (before Makefile default)
- Matches Makefile behavior: .env overrides Makefile default
- If .env has PROJECT_VERSION=0.8.0, both backend and frontend will use 0.8.0
- Ensures consistent versioning across all image builds

+# CI/CD Workflow and Versioning Strategy
+
+**Last Updated:** January 2025  
+**Status:** ✅ Active
+
+---
+
+## Overview
+
+This document describes the CI/CD workflow for deploying RAG Modulo to IBM Cloud Code Engine, including versioning strategy, image tagging, and registry management.
+

+
+## Workflow Overview
+
+The deployment workflow (`.github/workflows/deploy_complete_app.yml`) provides:
+
+- ✅ **Automated builds** on push to main branch
+- ✅ **Daily scheduled builds** (2 AM UTC)
+- ✅ **Manual deployment** with environment selection
+- ✅ **Release builds** triggered by git tags
+- ✅ **Security scanning** with Trivy
+- ✅ **Idempotent deployments** (safe to run multiple times)
+- ✅ **Automatic image cleanup** to manage registry storage
+
+### Workflow Triggers
+
+```yaml
+on:
+  workflow_dispatch:    # Manual deployment
+  schedule:             # Daily builds at 2 AM UTC
+  push:
+    branches: [main]    # Automatic on code changes
+    tags: ["v*.*.*"]    # Release builds
+  release:              # GitHub releases
+    types: [published]
+```
+
+---
+
+## Versioning Strategy
+
+### Single Source of Truth
+
+The project uses a unified versioning strategy that flows from `.env` → `Makefile` → `GitHub Actions`:
+
+```
+.env (PROJECT_VERSION=0.8.0)
+  ↓
+Makefile (PROJECT_VERSION ?= 1.0.0)  # .env overrides default
+  ↓
+GitHub Actions (reads from .env or Makefile)
+```
+
+### Version Priority Order
+
+The workflow determines version using this priority:
+
+1. **Git tag** (`v1.0.0`) - Highest priority (for releases)
+2. **GitHub variable** `PROJECT_VERSION` (if set in repository settings)
+3. **`.env` file** (`PROJECT_VERSION=0.8.0`) - Matches Makefile behavior
+4. **Makefile default** (`PROJECT_VERSION ?= 1.0.0`)
+5. **`pyproject.toml`** (`version = "1.0.0"`)
+6. **Commit SHA** (fallback for development builds)
+
+### Setting the Version
+
+#### Option 1: `.env` File (Recommended for Local Development)
+
+Add to your `.env` file:
+
+```bash
+PROJECT_VERSION=0.8.0
+```
+
+The Makefile automatically includes `.env`:
+
+```makefile
+-include .env
+ifneq (,$(wildcard .env))
+export $(shell sed 's/=.*//' .env)
+endif
+```
+
+#### Option 2: GitHub Repository Variable (Recommended for CI/CD)
+
+1. Go to **Settings** → **Secrets and variables** → **Actions** → **Variables**
+2. Add variable: `PROJECT_VERSION` = `0.8.0`
+
+#### Option 3: Git Tag (For Releases)
+
+```bash
+# Create and push a release tag
+git tag v1.0.0
+git push origin v1.0.0
+```
+
+This automatically triggers a release build with version `v1.0.0`.
+
+### Version Examples
+
+**Regular Development Build:**
+```bash
+# .env has PROJECT_VERSION=0.8.0
+# Images tagged with:
+- us.icr.io/rag_modulo/rag-modulo-backend:abc123... (commit SHA)
+- us.icr.io/rag_modulo/rag-modulo-backend:0.8.0     (from .env)
+- us.icr.io/rag_modulo/rag-modulo-backend:latest
+```
+
+**Release Build:**
+```bash
+# git tag v1.2.3
+# Images tagged with:
+- us.icr.io/rag_modulo/rag-modulo-backend:abc123... (commit SHA)
+- us.icr.io/rag_modulo/rag-modulo-backend:v1.2.3    (from git tag)
+- us.icr.io/rag_modulo/rag-modulo-backend:latest
+```
+
+---
+
+## Docker Image Tagging
+
+### Tagging Strategy
+
+Each Docker image is tagged with **three tags**:
+
+1. **Commit SHA** - Immutable, traceable (e.g., `abc123def456...`)
+2. **Version Tag** - Semantic version or commit SHA (e.g., `0.8.0` or `v1.0.0`)
+3. **Latest** - Always points to most recent build (e.g., `latest`)
+
+### Tag Types
+
+| Tag Type | Purpose | Used For | Example |
+|----------|---------|----------|---------|
+| Commit SHA | Immutable, traceable | Production deployments | `abc123def456...` |
+| Version | Semantic versioning | Releases, easy reference | `0.8.0`, `v1.0.0` |
+| Latest | Convenience | Quick reference, testing | `latest` |
+
+### Important Notes
+
+⚠️ **Never deploy from `latest` in production!**
+
+- `latest` is **mutable** and can change with each build
+- Always use **commit SHA** or **version tags** for production deployments
+- `latest` is for convenience only (quick lookups, testing)
+
+### Image Naming Convention
+
+```
+{ICR_REGION}.icr.io/{CR_NAMESPACE}/{APP_NAME}:{TAG}
+```
+
+**Example:**
+```
+us.icr.io/rag_modulo/rag-modulo-backend:0.8.0
+us.icr.io/rag_modulo/rag-modulo-backend:abc123def456...
+us.icr.io/rag_modulo/rag-modulo-backend:latest
+```
+
+---
+
+## Image Cleanup and Retention
+
+### Automatic Cleanup
+
+To prevent registry bloat from daily builds, the workflow includes an automatic cleanup job that:
+
+- ✅ Runs on scheduled builds and manual workflow dispatch
+- ✅ Keeps the last **30 images** (configurable)
+- ✅ Only deletes **commit SHA tags** (preserves version tags and `latest`)
+- ✅ Prevents storage issues from accumulating old images
+
+### Retention Configuration
+
+Set the retention count via GitHub repository variable:
+
+1. Go to **Settings** → **Secrets and variables** → **Actions** → **Variables**
+2. Add variable: `IMAGE_RETENTION_COUNT` = `30` (default: 30)
+
+### What Gets Deleted
+
+**Deleted:**
+- Old commit SHA tags beyond retention limit (e.g., `abc123...`, `def456...`)
+
+**Preserved:**
+- ✅ All version tags (`v1.0.0`, `v1.2.3`, `0.8.0`, etc.)
+- ✅ `latest` tag
+- ✅ Recent commit SHA tags (last 30)
+
+### Cleanup Example
+
+```bash
+# Before cleanup: 50 images
+# After cleanup (retention=30): 30 images + version tags + latest
+
+# Kept:
+- us.icr.io/rag_modulo/rag-modulo-backend:v1.0.0  ✅
+- us.icr.io/rag_modulo/rag-modulo-backend:0.8.0  ✅
+- us.icr.io/rag_modulo/rag-modulo-backend:latest  ✅
+- us.icr.io/rag_modulo/rag-modulo-backend:abc123... (last 30) ✅
+
+# Deleted:
+- us.icr.io/rag_modulo/rag-modulo-backend:old123... ❌
+- us.icr.io/rag_modulo/rag-modulo-backend:old456... ❌
+```
+

+## Workflow Jobs
+
+### Job Flow
+
+```
+deploy-infrastructure
+    ↓
+build-and-push-backend ──→ security-scan-backend ──→ deploy-backend
+build-and-push-frontend ──→ security-scan-frontend ──→ deploy-frontend
+    ↓
+cleanup-old-images (optional)
+    ↓
+smoke-test
+```
+
+### Job Descriptions
+
+#### 1. `deploy-infrastructure`
+
+- Deploys core infrastructure (PostgreSQL, MinIO, Milvus, etcd)
+- Creates Code Engine project (handles soft-deleted projects)
+- **Outputs:** `project_name` (used by other jobs)
+
+#### 2. `build-and-push-backend` / `build-and-push-frontend`
+
+- Builds Docker images with multi-stage builds
+- Tags images with commit SHA, version, and `latest`
+- Pushes to IBM Cloud Container Registry
+- Verifies images were pushed successfully
+- **Timeouts:** 30 min (backend), 20 min (frontend)
+
+#### 3. `security-scan-backend` / `security-scan-frontend`
+
+- Pulls images from registry
+- Scans with Trivy for vulnerabilities
+- Uploads SARIF results to GitHub Security tab
+- **Non-blocking:** Reports vulnerabilities without failing deployment
+
+#### 4. `deploy-backend` / `deploy-frontend`
+
+- Verifies image exists before deployment
+- Creates or updates Code Engine applications (idempotent)
+- Configures environment variables and scaling
+- **Idempotent:** Safe to run multiple times
+
+#### 5. `cleanup-old-images`
+
+- Removes old commit SHA tags beyond retention limit
+- Preserves version tags and `latest`
+- Runs on scheduled builds and manual dispatch
+
+#### 6. `smoke-test`
+
+- Waits for apps to be ready
+- Tests backend health endpoint
+- Tests frontend availability
+- Validates complete application deployment
+- **Retries:** 5 attempts with exponential backoff
+
+---
+
+## Best Practices
+
+### Version Management
+
+1. **Use `.env` for local development**
+   ```bash
+   PROJECT_VERSION=0.8.0
+   ```
+
+2. **Use GitHub variables for CI/CD**
+   - Set `PROJECT_VERSION` in repository variables
+   - Or commit `.env` file (if it doesn't contain secrets)
+
+3. **Use git tags for releases**
+   ```bash
+   git tag v1.0.0
+   git push origin v1.0.0
+   ```
+
+### Image Tagging
+
+1. **Always deploy from commit SHA or version tags**
+   - Never use `latest` for production
+   - Commit SHA ensures exact reproducibility
+
+2. **Tag releases with semantic versions**
+   - Use `v1.0.0` format for releases
+   - Makes it easy to identify and rollback
+
+3. **Keep version tags forever**
+   - Version tags are never deleted by cleanup
+   - Safe for long-term reference
+
+### Registry Management
+
+1. **Configure retention appropriately**
+   - Default: 30 images
+   - Adjust based on build frequency and storage limits
+
+2. **Monitor registry storage**
+   - Check IBM Cloud Container Registry usage
+   - Adjust `IMAGE_RETENTION_COUNT` if needed
+
+3. **Use version tags for important builds**
+   - Version tags are never cleaned up
+   - Useful for marking milestones
+
+### Deployment
+
+1. **Run workflows idempotently**
+   - Safe to re-run failed workflows
+   - Updates existing resources instead of creating duplicates
+
+2. **Verify before deploying**
+   - Workflow verifies images exist before deployment
+   - Prevents "404 Not Found" errors
+
+3. **Monitor deployment health**
+   - Smoke tests validate deployment success
+   - Check logs if health checks fail
+
+---
+
+## Troubleshooting
+
+### Version Not Found
+
+**Problem:** Workflow uses commit SHA instead of PROJECT_VERSION
+
+**Solutions:**
+1. Check if `.env` file exists and contains `PROJECT_VERSION=0.8.0`
+2. Set `PROJECT_VERSION` as GitHub repository variable
+3. Verify Makefile has `PROJECT_VERSION ?= 1.0.0` default
+
+### Image Not Found in Registry
+
+**Problem:** Deployment fails with "404 Not Found"
+
+**Solutions:**
+1. Check build job logs - did image push succeed?
+2. Verify ICR authentication is working
+3. Check image tags match between build and deploy jobs
+4. Ensure image verification step passes
+
+### Registry Storage Full
+
+**Problem:** Registry running out of space
+
+**Solutions:**
+1. Reduce `IMAGE_RETENTION_COUNT` (default: 30)
+2. Manually delete old images via IBM Cloud console
+3. Ensure cleanup job is running (check scheduled builds)
+
+### Deployment Fails with "Already Exists"
+
+**Problem:** Workflow fails because resource already exists
+
+**Solution:**
+- This shouldn't happen - workflow is idempotent
+- If it does, check the update logic in deploy jobs
+- Workflow should update existing resources, not create new ones

+# Versioning Strategy
+
+**Last Updated:** January 2025  
+**Status:** ✅ Active
+
+---
+
+## Overview
+
+RAG Modulo uses a unified versioning strategy that flows from `.env` → `Makefile` → `GitHub Actions`, ensuring consistent versioning across local development and CI/CD pipelines.
+
+## Table of Contents
+
+- [Version Flow](#version-flow)
+- [Setting the Version](#setting-the-version)
+- [Version Priority](#version-priority)
+- [Semantic Versioning](#semantic-versioning)
+- [Docker Image Tagging](#docker-image-tagging)
+- [Release Process](#release-process)
+- [Best Practices](#best-practices)
+
+---
+
+## Version Flow
+
+The version flows through the system in this order:
+
+```
+.env (PROJECT_VERSION=0.8.0)
+  ↓
+Makefile (PROJECT_VERSION ?= 1.0.0)  # .env overrides default
+  ↓
+GitHub Actions (reads from .env or Makefile)
+  ↓
+Docker Images (tagged with version)
+```
+
+### How It Works
+
+1. **`.env` file** (if exists) sets `PROJECT_VERSION=0.8.0`
+2. **Makefile** includes `.env` and uses it if present, otherwise defaults to `1.0.0`
+3. **GitHub Actions** reads from `.env` first, then Makefile, then other sources
+4. **Docker images** are tagged with the determined version
+
+---
+
+## Setting the Version
+
+### Option 1: `.env` File (Recommended for Local Development)
+
+Add to your `.env` file:
+
+```bash
+PROJECT_VERSION=0.8.0
+```
+
+**How Makefile picks it up:**
+
+```makefile
+# Include environment variables from .env file if it exists
+-include .env
+ifneq (,$(wildcard .env))
+export $(shell sed 's/=.*//' .env)
+endif
+
+# Project info
+PROJECT_VERSION ?= 1.0.0  # Default, but .env overrides this
+```
+
+The `?=` operator means "assign only if not already set", so `.env` values take precedence.
+
+### Option 2: GitHub Repository Variable (Recommended for CI/CD)
+
+1. Go to **Settings** → **Secrets and variables** → **Actions** → **Variables**
+2. Add variable: `PROJECT_VERSION` = `0.8.0`
+
+This is useful when `.env` is gitignored and not available in CI/CD.
+
+### Option 3: Git Tag (For Releases)
+
+```bash
+# Create and push a release tag
+git tag v1.0.0
+git push origin v1.0.0
+```
+
+This automatically triggers a release build and uses the tag as the version.
+
+---
+
+## Version Priority
+
+The system determines version using this priority order (highest to lowest):
+
+1. **Git tag** (`v1.0.0`) - Highest priority
+   - Used when you push a tag like `v1.0.0`
+   - Automatically triggers release workflow
+
+2. **GitHub variable** `PROJECT_VERSION`
+   - Set in repository settings
+   - Useful for CI/CD when `.env` is not available
+
+3. **`.env` file** (`PROJECT_VERSION=0.8.0`)
+   - Matches Makefile behavior
+   - Used for local development
+
+4. **Makefile default** (`PROJECT_VERSION ?= 1.0.0`)
+   - Fallback if `.env` doesn't exist
+   - Defined in `Makefile` line 26
+
+5. **`pyproject.toml`** (`version = "1.0.0"`)
+   - Python package version
+   - Fallback if Makefile doesn't have PROJECT_VERSION
+
+6. **Commit SHA** (final fallback)
+   - Used for development builds
+   - Ensures every build has a unique identifier
+
+### Example Priority Resolution
+
+```bash
+# Scenario 1: .env exists with PROJECT_VERSION=0.8.0
+# Result: Uses 0.8.0
+
+# Scenario 2: .env doesn't exist, Makefile has PROJECT_VERSION ?= 1.0.0
+# Result: Uses 1.0.0
+
+# Scenario 3: Git tag v1.2.3 is pushed
+# Result: Uses v1.2.3 (overrides everything)
+
+# Scenario 4: GitHub variable PROJECT_VERSION=0.9.0 is set
+# Result: Uses 0.9.0 (if no git tag)
+```
+
+---
+
+## Semantic Versioning
+
+RAG Modulo follows [Semantic Versioning](https://semver.org/) (SemVer):
+
+```
+MAJOR.MINOR.PATCH
+```
+
+### Version Number Meanings
+
+- **MAJOR** (1.0.0): Breaking changes, incompatible API changes
+- **MINOR** (0.1.0): New features, backward-compatible
+- **PATCH** (0.0.1): Bug fixes, backward-compatible
+
+### Examples
+
+```bash
+# Major release (breaking changes)
+PROJECT_VERSION=2.0.0
+
+# Minor release (new features)
+PROJECT_VERSION=1.1.0
+
+# Patch release (bug fixes)
+PROJECT_VERSION=1.0.1
+
+# Pre-release
+PROJECT_VERSION=1.0.0-beta.1
+```
+
+### Git Tags Format
+
+When creating release tags, use the `v` prefix:
+
+```bash
+# Correct
+git tag v1.0.0
+git tag v1.2.3
+git tag v2.0.0-beta.1

+
+## Docker Image Tagging
+
+### Tag Strategy
+
+Each Docker image is tagged with **three tags**:
+
+1. **Commit SHA** - Immutable, traceable
+2. **Version Tag** - Semantic version or commit SHA
+3. **Latest** - Always points to most recent build
+
+### Tag Examples
+
+**Regular Development Build:**
+```bash
+# .env has PROJECT_VERSION=0.8.0
+# Images tagged with:
+- us.icr.io/rag_modulo/rag-modulo-backend:abc123def456... (commit SHA)
+- us.icr.io/rag_modulo/rag-modulo-backend:0.8.0           (from .env)
+- us.icr.io/rag_modulo/rag-modulo-backend:latest
+```
+
+**Release Build:**
+```bash
+# git tag v1.2.3
+# Images tagged with:
+- us.icr.io/rag_modulo/rag-modulo-backend:abc123def456... (commit SHA)
+- us.icr.io/rag_modulo/rag-modulo-backend:v1.2.3          (from git tag)
+- us.icr.io/rag_modulo/rag-modulo-backend:latest
+```
+
+### Tag Usage
+
+| Tag Type | Use For | Example |
+|----------|---------|---------|
+| Commit SHA | Production deployments | `abc123def456...` |
+| Version | Releases, easy reference | `0.8.0`, `v1.0.0` |
+| Latest | Quick reference only | `latest` |
+
+⚠️ **Important:** Never deploy from `latest` in production! It's mutable and can change.
+
+---
+
+## Release Process
+
+### Creating a Release
+
+#### Step 1: Update Version
+
+```bash
+# Update .env file
+echo "PROJECT_VERSION=1.0.0" >> .env
+
+# Or update Makefile default
+# Edit Makefile line 26:
+# PROJECT_VERSION ?= 1.0.0
+```
+
+#### Step 2: Commit Changes
+
+```bash
+git add .env Makefile
+git commit -m "chore: Bump version to 1.0.0"
+git push origin main
+```
+
+#### Step 3: Create Release Tag
+
+```bash
+# Create and push tag
+git tag v1.0.0
+git push origin v1.0.0
+```
+
+This automatically:
+- Triggers release workflow
+- Builds images with `v1.0.0` tag
+- Deploys to production (if configured)
+
+#### Step 4: Create GitHub Release (Optional)
+
+1. Go to **Releases** → **Draft a new release**
+2. Select tag `v1.0.0`
+3. Add release notes
+4. Publish release
+
+---
+
+## Best Practices
+
+### Version Management
+
+1. **Use `.env` for local development**
+   ```bash
+   PROJECT_VERSION=0.8.0
+   ```
+
+2. **Update version before major changes**
+   - Major changes → bump MAJOR
+   - New features → bump MINOR
+   - Bug fixes → bump PATCH
+
+3. **Use git tags for releases**
+   - Tag format: `v1.0.0`
+   - Tag after merging to main
+   - Include release notes
+
+4. **Keep versions in sync**
+   - `.env` → `Makefile` → `pyproject.toml`
+   - Update all when releasing
+
+### Version Consistency
+
+Ensure version is consistent across:
+
+- ✅ `.env` file (if used)
+- ✅ `Makefile` (default)
+- ✅ `pyproject.toml` (Python package version)
+- ✅ GitHub repository variable (for CI/CD)
+- ✅ Git tags (for releases)
+
+### Versioning Workflow
+
+```bash
+# 1. Update version in .env
+echo "PROJECT_VERSION=0.9.0" >> .env
+
+# 2. Test locally
+make build-all
+make test-all
+
+# 3. Commit and push
+git add .env
+git commit -m "chore: Bump version to 0.9.0"
+git push origin main
+
+# 4. Create release tag
+git tag v0.9.0
+git push origin v0.9.0
+
+# 5. Verify deployment
+# Check GitHub Actions workflow
+# Verify images are tagged correctly
+```
+
+---
+
+## Troubleshooting
+
+### Version Not Being Used
+
+**Problem:** Workflow uses commit SHA instead of PROJECT_VERSION
+
+**Solutions:**
+1. Check if `.env` file exists and contains `PROJECT_VERSION=0.8.0`
+2. Verify Makefile has `PROJECT_VERSION ?= 1.0.0` default
+3. Set `PROJECT_VERSION` as GitHub repository variable
+4. Check workflow logs for version extraction step
+
+### Version Mismatch
+
+**Problem:** Different versions in different places
+
+**Solution:**
+```bash
+# Check all version sources
+grep -r "PROJECT_VERSION\|version" .env Makefile pyproject.toml
+
+# Update to match
+# 1. Update .env
+# 2. Update Makefile default
+# 3. Update pyproject.toml
+# 4. Commit changes
+```
+
+### Git Tag Not Recognized
+
+**Problem:** Workflow doesn't use git tag version
+
+**Solution:**
+- Ensure tag format is `v*.*.*` (e.g., `v1.0.0`)
+- Check workflow triggers include `tags: ["v*.*.*"]`
+- Verify tag was pushed: `git push origin v1.0.0`

+
+## Summary
+
+The versioning strategy provides:
+
+- ✅ **Single source of truth**: `.env` → `Makefile` → `GitHub Actions`
+- ✅ **Flexible configuration**: Multiple ways to set version
+- ✅ **Semantic versioning**: Clear version meaning
+- ✅ **Consistent tagging**: Docker images tagged correctly
+- ✅ **Release automation**: Git tags trigger releases
+
+This ensures consistent, traceable versioning across all environments.

+## Versioning Strategy
+
+RAG Modulo uses a unified versioning strategy that flows from `.env` → `Makefile` → `GitHub Actions`. This ensures consistent versioning across local development and CI/CD pipelines.
+
+**Key Points:**
+- Set `PROJECT_VERSION=0.8.0` in `.env` file
+- Makefile automatically picks it up
+- GitHub Actions uses it for Docker image tagging
+- Git tags (`v1.0.0`) override for releases
+
+For complete documentation, see [Versioning Strategy Guide](versioning.md).

Subject: [PATCH 25/50] fix: Improve smoke-test to detect and report failed app
 states

Problem:
- Smoke-test was waiting indefinitely for apps that were in failed state
- No detection of failed conditions (RevisionFailed, ContainerMissing, etc.)
- No helpful error messages when apps fail to deploy

Solution:
- Add check_app_status() function that:
  * Detects ready revisions
  * Detects failed conditions (RevisionFailed, ContainerMissing, ContainerUnhealthy)
  * Checks revision status for detailed error messages
  * Returns appropriate status codes

Improvements:
- Fail fast when app is in failed state (don't wait 5 minutes)
- Show detailed error messages from app/revision conditions
- Display debugging information (app status, revision details)
- Better error reporting for troubleshooting

This will catch issues like:
- Image not found (404 errors)
- Container startup failures
- Configuration errors
- Resource limit issues

Subject: [PATCH 29/50] fix: Use fallback strategy for image tags in deploy
 jobs

Problem:
- Deploy jobs hardcoded to use github.sha tag
- If that specific commit's image doesn't exist, deployment fails
- Old deployments can get stuck with non-existent image tags

Solution:
- Extract PROJECT_VERSION using same logic as build job
- Try multiple image tags in priority order:
  1. Commit SHA (most specific, immutable)
  2. Version tag (from .env/Makefile, more stable)
  3. Latest tag (fallback if others don't exist)
- Use first available image tag
- Export IMAGE_URL to GITHUB_ENV for deployment step

Benefits:
- More resilient to missing commit SHA images
- Can fall back to version tag or latest
- Prevents deployment failures when specific commit image missing
- Still prefers commit SHA for traceability when available

This fixes the issue where apps are configured with commit SHA tags
that don't exist in the registry (e.g., 07a13c44194bdae0a38ecf593258b43f7e4b0d02)

Subject: [PATCH 31/50] fix: Handle soft-deleted projects in deploy-backend and
 deploy-frontend

Problem:
- deploy-backend and deploy-frontend were trying to select projects
  that are soft-deleted, causing failures
- They weren't using the project name from deploy-infrastructure
  which handles soft-deleted projects

Solution:
- Add deploy-infrastructure as dependency for both jobs
- Use project name from deploy-infrastructure outputs
- Check for soft-deleted state BEFORE trying to select project
- Create new project with timestamp if soft-deleted
- Same logic as deploy-infrastructure job

This ensures:
- All jobs use the same project (or new one if soft-deleted)
- No failures when project is soft-deleted
- Consistent project handling across all deploy jobs

Subject: [PATCH 32/50] fix: Check for soft-deleted projects before selecting

Problem:
- Both deploy-backend and deploy-frontend were trying to select projects
  before checking if they're soft-deleted
- This caused failures when project is soft-deleted

Solution:
- Check project status BEFORE trying to select
- If soft-deleted, create new project with timestamp
- If exists, select it
- If doesn't exist, create it
- Same logic as deploy-infrastructure job

This ensures projects are handled correctly regardless of state

Subject: [PATCH 33/50] fix: Use --name flag for ibmcloud ce app update command

Problem:
- ibmcloud ce app update command requires --name flag explicitly
- Using positional argument '' caused 'Required option name is not set' error

Solution:
- Change from: ibmcloud ce app update "$APP_NAME" ...
- Change to: ibmcloud ce app update --name "$APP_NAME" ...

This fixes the frontend deployment failure and ensures
backend deployment uses the same correct syntax.

Subject: [PATCH 35/50] fix: Add email-validator and fix frontend nginx backend
 URL

Backend Fix:
- Add email-validator>=2.1.0 to dependencies
- Fixes PackageNotFoundError: No package metadata was found for email-validator
- Pydantic[email] extra should include it but explicit dependency ensures it's installed

Frontend Fix:
- Change nginx config to use BACKEND_URL environment variable instead of hardcoded 'backend:8000'
- Use nginx template substitution (envsubst) for runtime configuration
- Copy default.conf to /etc/nginx/templates/default.conf.template
- nginx:alpine automatically processes templates and substitutes env vars

Workflow Fix:
- Get backend URL from Code Engine if REACT_APP_API_URL not set
- Pass BACKEND_URL environment variable to frontend app
- Ensures nginx can proxy to correct backend URL in Code Engine

This fixes:
- Backend startup failure due to missing email-validator
- Frontend nginx error: host not found in upstream 'backend'
- Frontend can now proxy API requests to backend in Code Engine

Subject: [PATCH 42/50] fix: Prevent CUDA/NVIDIA libraries from being installed

- Set environment variables (CUDA_VISIBLE_DEVICES, FORCE_CPU) to force CPU-only mode
- Install transformers and sentence-transformers BEFORE docling with CPU-only PyTorch index
- Add verification step to detect any CUDA/NVIDIA libraries after installation
- Prevents docling dependencies from pulling CUDA versions
- Reduces image size by ~6GB

Subject: [PATCH 44/50] fix: Backend email-validator and frontend deployment
 dependency

**Backend Fix (Dockerfile.backend:50)**:
- Fixed dependency extraction to handle pydantic[email] syntax
- Prevents email-validator import error at runtime
- Preserves square brackets in extras dependencies

**Frontend Fix (deploy_complete_app.yml:908-909)**:
- Add deploy-backend to frontend deployment dependencies
- Ensures backend is ready before frontend deploys
- Fixes BACKEND_URL resolution in nginx template

**Root Cause**:
- Backend: Custom pip install was mangling pydantic[email] syntax
- Frontend: Deploying before backend was ready, causing invalid BACKEND_URL

**Testing**: Both fixes needed for successful Code Engine deployment

Subject: [PATCH 45/50] fix: Use backend/Dockerfile.backend instead of
 Dockerfile.codeengine

- Workflow was using Dockerfile.codeengine which has poetry install
- poetry install pulls CUDA PyTorch from poetry.lock (~6-8GB)
- backend/Dockerfile.backend has custom pip install for CPU-only PyTorch
- Also has email-validator fix for pydantic[email] syntax

This should resolve both CUDA libraries and email-validator issues.

 default
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit

- Change default region from us-south to ca-tor (uses ca.icr.io)
- Add default value for SKIP_AUTH (false) to prevent Pydantic validation errors
- Use backend/Dockerfile.backend instead of Dockerfile.codeengine for CPU-only PyTorch
- All deployments now use ca.icr.io (Toronto region) instead of us.icr.io

Fixes:
- CUDA libraries removed (CPU-only PyTorch)
- email-validator properly installed
- SKIP_AUTH validation error resolved
- Region configured for Toronto (ca-tor)

- Kept Dockerfile.backend fix for CPU-only PyTorch

The workflow already properly maps ca-tor → ca to use ca.icr.io.
To use ca.icr.io: Set GitHub variable IBM_CLOUD_REGION='ca-tor'

Subject: [PATCH 49/50] fix(docker): preserve numpy._core.tests in cleanup

Docker cleanup was removing ALL 'tests' directories including numpy._core.tests,
which is a required module (not test code) used by numpy.testing.

This caused cascading import failures:
- numpy.testing imports numpy._core.tests._natype
- scipy imports numpy
- sklearn imports scipy
- transformers imports sklearn
- Result: ModuleNotFoundError for AutoModelForImageTextToText

Fix: Exclude numpy from tests cleanup using find -path exclusion.

Tested locally with ARM64 build - AutoModelForImageTextToText imports successfully.

Subject: [PATCH 50/50] Trigger new deployment with latest fixes
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit

This commit forces a new GitHub Actions workflow run to build Docker images
with the fixed Dockerfile that correctly handles transformers[vision] extras.

Previous deployment (run #166) used commit 14633ba which had:
- ✅ transformers[vision] in pyproject.toml
- ❌ OLD Dockerfile dependency extraction (before commit 9a1c8cb fix)

Current deployment will use commit 0d69731 which has:
- ✅ transformers[vision] in pyproject.toml
- ✅ FIXED Dockerfile dependency extraction (preserves extras syntax)

Root cause: AutoModelForImageTextToText import failure due to incomplete
transformers[vision] installation from broken dependency extraction.
